Green smoothie questions?

Kidney Stones Prevention
Ok so I have been trying to be really healthy by introducing greens slowly into my diet. But I have been having doubts.
I have done some reasearch and there has been a lot of of research on oxalates in greens. When greens are left at their natural states they are not oxalic acid right? but when they are heated they turn into oxalic acids which bind to calcium increasing risk for kidney stones and eving robbing our bones of calcium.
Do you think if I take 1000mg of Calcium a day it would be better or worse.
I am sooo confused. I literally spent hours tryign to research this but everyone had different opinoions.HELP

I think taking a Calcium supplement is good. Make sure you need it though, b/c too much Ca is bad for you. Clear it w/ your doctor if you can…..
